Maatskaplike werk groepsintervensie vir slagoffers van boeliegedrag: funksionele elemente
(Scriber Editorial Systems, 2016)This article covers part of a research project aimed at the development of an intervention for use in group work with children in their late middle childhood who are victims of bullying behaviour. In the second phase of ... -
Machine learning digital soil mapping to inform gully erosion mitigation measures in the Eastern Cape, South Africa
(Elsevier, 2020)Soil erosion is probably the most common form of land degradation, leading to on and off site detrimental effects, such as an increase in river sediment load which have been shown to drastically decrease dam storage capacity. ... -
Machine learning for radio frequency interference mitigation using polarization
(IEEE, 2017)Radio frequency interference (RFI) is electromagnetic interference (EMI) from signals in the radio frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum. RFI reduces the sensitivity of radio telescope and produces artefacts in ... -
Machine Learning Research Trends In Africa: A 30 Years Overview With Bibliometric Analysis Review
(Springer, 2023)The machine learning (ML) paradigm has gained much popularity today. Its algorithmic models are employed in every feld, such as natural language processing, pattern recognition, object detection, image recognition, earth ... -
Macro and trace elements of 26 browse species growing in semi-arid grazing lands of Eastern Cape, South Africa
(National Inquiry Services Centre (NISC), 2017)Leaves and twigs from woody plants provide essential nutrients to range animals. We examined variation in the mineral status of 26 woody species, and the influence of harvesting height as well as the interactions of the ... -
Macrobenthic communities in selected river-dominated estuaries in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa: effects of contrasting environmental variables and seasonal flow changes
(CERF, 2020)Globally, estuaries are ecologically important, but many are threatened by anthropogenic activities. Macrozoobenthos organisms are suitable ecological indicators in estuaries because they can detect the effects of stress ... -
Macrocyclic inhibitor for corrosion of N80 steel in 3.5% NaCl solution saturated with CO2
(Elsevier, 2016)The inhibition of the corrosion of N80 steel in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution saturated with CO2 by the 1,2,4,7,9,10-hexaazacyclo-pentadeca-10,15-dien-3,5,6,8-tetraone (HPT) has been studied using Fourier transform infrared ... -
Macroinvertebrate variation in endorheic depression wetlands in North West and Mpumalanga provinces, South Africa
(Natl Inquiry Services Centre Pty Ltd, 2015)Aquatic macroinvertebrates are rarely used in wetland assessments due to their variation. However, in terms of biodiversity, these invertebrates form an important component of wetland fauna. Spatial and temporal variation of ... -
The Madagascar Crisis, SADC Mediation and the Changing Indian Oceanic Order
(Human Sciences Research Council, 2014)The political stability of Madagascar has been fragile for decades. In 2009, Madagascar experienced what was considered to be an unconstitutional change of government when power was usurped from then president, Marc ... -
Maestro for a moment: a conceptual framework for music integration in Grade R
(AOSIS, 2016)In South Africa, possibilities to utilise music to contribute to the holistic development of preschool learners are under continuous investigation. However, music education in the Grade R classroom is limited due to ... -
Mag deur taal in 1 Johannes
(AOSIS, 2012)Power is often exercised through language. Here it is argued that the author of John utilises different language strategies in order to exert power over and to influence his intended readers. His authority lies in his ... -
Magnesium intake predicts bone turnover in postmenopausal black South African women
(MDPI, 2019)This prospective study investigated the association between nutrient intake, dietary patterns, and changes in bone turnover and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal urban black South African women over two years. ... -
Magnetic circuit analysis of the low-cost in-wheel switching flux motor for HEV applications
(IEEE, 2019)This paper presents the design and analysis of Permanent Magnet Switching Flux Motor (PMSFM) for hybrid electrical vehicle application. The design is intended to obtain a cost effective, efficient motor with small flux ... -
Magnetic field amplification and flat spectrum radio quasars
(Oxford University Press, 2014)We perform time-dependent, spatially resolved simulations of blazar emission to evaluate several flaring scenarios related to magnetic-field amplification and enhanced particle acceleration. The code explicitly accounts ... -
Magnetic field generation and particle energization at relativistic shear boundaries in collisionless electron-positron plasmas
(IOP Science, 2013)Using particle-in-cell simulations, we study the kinetic physics of relativistic shear flow in collisionless electron–positron (e+e−) plasmas. We find efficient magnetic field generation and particle energization at the ... -
Magnetite immobilized metal nanoparticles in the treatment and removal of pollutants from wastewater: a review
(Springer, 2023)The increase in population and industrial activities has resulted in harmful pollutants in our water sources that cause a concern for our future health and environmental well-being. These pollutants include pharmaceuticals, ... -

Magnetogenesis in cyclical Universe
(IOP Publishing, 2018)We propose a simple solution to the magnetogenesis problem based on cyclic cosmology. It is demonstrated that magnetic fields, of sufficient strengths to account for the present observational bounds, can be created in ... -
Magnetospheric electric field variations caused by storm-time shock fronts
(Elsevier, 2008)On January 20, 2005 there was an X 7.1 solar flare at 0636 UT with an accompanied halo coronal mass ejection (CME). The resultant interplanetary shock impacted earth ∼36 h later. Near earth, the Advanced Composition Explorer ... -
Maintaining euthyroidism: fundamentals of thyroid hormone physiology, iodine metabolism and hypothyroidism
(MedPharm, 2017)Thyroid-related pathologies, especially subclinical and clinical hypothyroidism, are commonly described in clinical practice. While illnesses related to aberrant thyroid hormone homeostasis are the most prevalent ...
